Great to meet you!

I am an LPC in Texas with a Master's in Psychology specializing in Family, Couples, and Individual Psychotherapy. I have experience providing therapeutic services to adults, children, and couples in several areas, including domestic violence, crisis intervention, substance abuse, family and relationship challenges, learning challenges, problem-solving skills, building resilience skills, anger and stress management, and emotional triggers. I look forward to being a part of your journey.

My approach to therapy

My therapeutic treatment approaches are Client-Centered Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy.

What you can expect from me

As a Therapist and Registered Nurse, I use a holistic approach. The sessions will incorporate the mental, emotional, and physical aspects of the body. In our first session together, we will start with brief introductions and then explore specific challenges you are facing. This will help develop a tailored plan and set goals to work towards in follow-up sessions.
